Sabrina Style — Attraction in Newtown

Attention brides!!

Above and beyond! Sabrina Style and their owner Ana truly care and love what they do. They work to put a smile on customers faces and I can’t thank Ana enough for helping me secure my bridal gown. If you know Sabrina Style, you may be thinking “I bought my prom dress from there” or “They have bridal gowns?”. Those were the exact thoughts that I had but I’m so glad I reached out to them! They are developing their current bridal selection to expand into the bridal market, so keep an eye out for what’s to come!

I had previously gone to 5 other bridal stores, with no success. I was discouraged and just about ready to settle on a dress for my wedding. I had found a designer and a specific dress online that was not carried in any stores “locally”. I saw that Sabrina Style had a new partnership with this designer and took a chance by asking if there was any way for me to try on this dress. Without hesitation, Ana reached out to the designer in Spain to find out how I could try on the dress. Unfortunately, the dress was going to be discontinued and the only potential option from the designer was for me to buy the ONE sample gown that they knew was remaining in the world, depending on condition and size. I was willing to try anything so I said yes to this search. After Ana found out that the sample dress was in distressed condition and about 4 sizes too big, she reached back out to the team. She went back and forth with them, pleading my situation and really trying everything to work something out. In the end, the designer came back and said that they would make this one dress for me!! Fast forward a few months, I just picked up my dress and I couldn’t be happier. I know that I wouldn’t have this dress if it wasn’t for Ana and Sabrina Style doing everything to make my dress dreams come true. ...

Unfortunately, I am giving my experience here 0 stars. I purchased a prom dress here back in 2017 without issue, so I figured it would be the same. I was wrong.

While I am hopeful the saleswoman meant well, she completely deterred me from ever coming back to shop here with her EXTREMELY pushy nature. From the moment I walked into the store, I told her a few times that I would please like to peruse the gowns myself, which she ignored. I could not even look at a single dress of my choosing nor have a second to process whether I liked it or not before she thrust another dress in front of me. When I said I did not like the dress, she proceeded to convince me otherwise. When I told her the $500 dress was NOT in my price range for a wedding guest dress, she proceeded to convince me it was. Then she took $200 off. I said it is still not the range I am looking for but thank you very much. She continued to ignore me and speak about the dress as if it was still a potential dress option. While changing in the dressing room, I even felt pressured and pushed because she kept peering through the curtain space to see if I had the dress on yet. Frankly, I hadn't even taken my bra off yet. While I'm not a super modest person but I would've liked some privacy please. Finally, I made up a reason as to why I needed to leave, and as soon as I said that the saleswoman's demeanor completely changed from overly complimentary to plain cold.

This was truly a very unenjoyable and uncomfortable experience and again, while I hope the saleswoman had intentions in the right spot--- I left feeling like she prioritized the sale over anything. Honestly, I don't even have a sense for the beauty of the dresses as a whole because I wasn't even able to look at them! I will never...

I had the best experience here at Sabrina's! This is a small boutique shop with prom and evening wear and very little bridal but it is setup so nicely! I have been to so many bridal stores (including Kleinfeld Bridal!) and the service here was above and beyond what I've experienced. The owner and her helper Rene were wonderful in helping with ideas and catering to me and my party of 4. Rene, I can not say enough great things about she was almost like my personal assistant checking in on me asking how I felt in what I tried on asking me for my thoughts as I tried on gowns. The very first gown I tried on I felt like it was the one and at one point I said YES to the dress and she popped open a bottle of wine for us and took pictures. But then I had reservations. The owner didn't pressure me or start to treat me any different because I wasn't sure. She even was willing to give me a deal on the dress. I walked out of the store without the dress and on to my next appointment. However, she said she would hold it for a day in case I changed my mind. Rene checked in with me the next day to see if I found anything and if I was interested in coming back. She was very encouraging and said yes come on in and try it on again and see how you feel. Needless to say I went in two days later from my original appt. got the same service from both ladies. Rene and the owner even offered me to complete my look with earrings, headband and a veil. No other shop did that for me. At one point as Rene was helping me with something on the dress, a customer came over and said let me take a picture of you ladies thinking that Rene was in my wedding party! In the end I said YES to the dress! I am so glad to have given them...
